Bridging Science and Spirituality

Would you please explain the process of the "Second Coming"? I feel that is the returning to our consciousness of the Christ awareness, but there has been another understanding which says that you, Jesus, physically will be returning.

"I have no plans at the moment."

Do you have any plans in the future?

"I ask you to live in the moment. Will you not allow me the same prerogative?

"Your perception is quite correct. The misperception is the one that says there was a first or second coming. The Christ has never changed. Should you say, "Will the Jesus-person be coming again," it would be totally different in its meaning. Whether or not the Jesus-person returns should be looked upon by you as being totally irrelevant. There are many reasons for this. Why would I encourage you to understand that, on the one hand, simply because we appear to be in different states of embodiment, we are not really separate, and then encourage you to look forward to my coming again which would indicate to you that this would somehow bring us closer?

"You are attempting to allow your mind slowly and gently to transcend the thoughts of limitation. It would not be appropriate for me to act in any way that would be contradictory to what you are doing. I will say to you as well that speaking in terms of the Christ, it is also irrelevant if there is a "Second Coming." There is only one point of value and that is for you to recognize at this moment, what Is. At this moment, you Are. You are in a state of being the Christ, of being the expression of God who expresses Himself as being You. I ask you only to recognize this. How could it be important to allow your attention to dwell upon any second coming? There is no value to you there." [Dialogue on Awakening, 3rd edition, page 139-140]
